[Accidental Video;]

[The video flickers on with Katara arranging her bed dutifully. She's tucking the sheets, fluffing the pillows, and dusting off the bed silently. This goes on before the video turns hazy and flickers on a memory ( Read more... )

...Miss?

Ah... hello, Miss? You must be a courageous mermaid who saved many lives from cruel waters and now ended up stranded ashore - nothing else explains someone as pretty as you. And as wet. Unfortunately, up here, we have very weird, two-legged-people habits, and one of them... one of them says, you should dry yourself a little, so you don't catch a cold.

[After hearing what you just said, she peers up, her face filled with tears as she gives you a confused look.]

What are you talking about?

voice sparkling_by August 22 2010, 13:13:57 UTC

That... looks wet. And when things are wet, people get wet. And then they catch colds! Because of these tiny disgusting things, called germs. And it's not true that little girls have more germs than little boys and should be avoided for it! Everyone has an equal amount of ugly, mean, and completely unnecessary germs!

...but dry yourself, please.

[She just stare at the device for a long time before arching a brow.]

...... Uh, what?

voice sparkling_by August 22 2010, 13:28:45 UTC

Dry? Aren't you... cold? Wet? You looked... um.

voice drizzlinginside August 22 2010, 13:31:37 UTC

I'm used to being cold. [Since she lived in igloos!]

voice sparkling_by August 22 2010, 13:36:22 UTC

But if you can still notice you're cold, then it can't be comfortable on you, right? And so... are you sure you'll be all right?

voice drizzlinginside August 22 2010, 13:39:51 UTC

I... don't seem to notice it. [Because it's colder inside her heart.] I'll be fine..

voice sparkling_by August 22 2010, 13:44:12 UTC

Oh? Really? My, my. You know - can you keep a secret? - even though water can't harm a handsome man, being cold still makes me quite useless. Overlooking this kind of thing, like you are, I think that must take quite a lot of bravery.

voice drizzlinginside August 22 2010, 13:50:40 UTC

Bravery? What has that got to do with anything?

voice sparkling_by August 22 2010, 13:54:03 UTC

Well, you're enduring through a harsh condition without complaining at all, aren't you? Isn't that brave? Maybe it's not slaying dragons, or vanquishing an army of dark knights, but... people who don't give in to their discomfort, usually because they don't want to worry others, are brave too.

At least, I think so.

[Those are very sweet words! So just have her staring in disbelief...]

voice drizzlinginside August 22 2010, 14:05:00 UTC

[Then, she smiles a bit through tears.]

.... Thank you.

voice sparkling_by August 22 2010, 14:36:13 UTC

What fo --- you don't have to. It's the truth. It's just how things are, so... shouldn't I be thanking you for being brave, instead? You're setting a good example, for my two wayward sons.
